Jessie J is no drag queen

Singer Jessie J has toned down her make-up to avoid looking like a “drag queen”.

The Price Tag singer admits she sometimes gets so carried away with her lipstick and accessories that she ends up looking like a man dressed as a woman.

She says, “I have calmed down my look. Is it really necessary to wear all that jewellery and make-up at 7am and look like a drag queen?”

But having jetted Down Under last weekend to perform at the Future Music Festival, the 23-year-old blames her tiredness for her tendency to go over the top with her style.

Talking to the Daily Telegraph, she explained, “When you’re tired, you start to overcompensate for it by wearing too much bling.”

Another reason for Jessie’s fashion rethink is her new role as a mentor on the UK version of The Voice.

She explained to the Daily Mail newspaper, “It’s all about the vocals. I want music to define the show.

“I love getting dressed up but I want to be remembered for singing.

“I am styling myself at the moment. Fashion is something that I love to do. But I am definitely not making everything about image.”
